Definitions
- the present invention relates to assay methods suitable for identifying compounds which stimulate glucokinase in pancreatic ⁇ -cells, leading to a decreased threshold for insulin secretion.
- the compounds are expected to lower blood glucose by increasing hepatic glucose uptake.
- Such compounds may have utility in the treatment of non-insulin dependent diabetes (NIDDM).
- NIDDM non-insulin dependent diabetes
- the main plasma membrane glucose transporter is GLUT2.
- GLUT2 is not rate limiting with the effect that in these cells the rate of glucose uptake is limited by the rate of phosphorylation of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P), catalysed by glucokinase (GLK) ( Pilkis and Granner 1992, Malaisse 1993).
- GLK has a high (6-10mM) Km for glucose, is not inhibited by physiological concentrations of G-6-P and is predominantly expressed in liver, kidney and pancreatic ⁇ -cells (Pilkis et al 1994 and Caro et al 1995).
- GLK may have an important role in the development of NIDDMs (Glasser et al 1998). Firstly, GLK mutations are believed to be the primary defect responsible for several forms of maturity onset diabetes of youth (MODY) a rare form of NIDDM (Froguel et al 1993, Bell et al 1996 and Shiota et al 1998). Secondly, the constitutive expression of yeast hexokinase gene in transgenic mice has been shown to cause increased insulin secretion and hypoglycaemia. This data offers new evidence in support of a critical role for GLK in determining glucose phosphorylation and insulin secretion rate in the beta cell.
- GLK is associated with a regulatory protein (GLKRP) which binds to and inactivates GLK in the presence of fructose-6-phosphate (F-6-P).
- F-6-P fructose-6-phosphate
- F-l-P Fructose- 1 -phosphate
- inorganic phosphate interfere with the binding of F-6-P thereby preventing binding of
- GLKRP GLKRP to GLK.
- a compound which similarly interferes with the interaction between GLK and GLKRP will effectively stimulate GLK and may offer an opportunity for the development of a novel therapeutic agent for the treatment of NIDDM (Veiga-da-Cunhe etal 1996).
- NIDDM Vandeiga-da-Cunhe etal 1996.
- GLK acts as the rate limiting step in glucose uptake and utilisation.
- a compound which stimulates GLK by interfering with the interaction between GLK and GLKRP will lower blood glucose by increasing hepatic glucose uptake.
- increased glucose metabolism leads through increased ⁇ cell [ATP]/[ADP] concentration ratio, to closure of the ATP-dependant K + channels, hence to membrane depolarisation and opening of voltage gated Ca + channels.
- the ensuing increase in ⁇ cell Ca 2+ provokes a glucose sensitive insulin release ( Matschinsky et al 1993).
- a compound which stimulates GLK by interfering with the interaction between GLK and GLKRP in ⁇ cells will thus also lead to a decreased glucose threshold for insulin secretion. Both effects will be of benefit in the treatment of NIDDM.
- Enzymatic activity of GLK may be measured by incubating GLK, ATP and glucose as shown in Figure 2.
- the rate of product formation may be determined by coupling the assay to a G-6-P dehydrogenase, NADP/NADPH system and measuring the increase in optical density at 340nm ( Matschinsky et al 1993).
- this type of assay procedure has a number of disadvantages.
- use of such an assay method to screen compounds would identify all compounds which modulate enzyme activity, regardless of their mechanism of action.
- the assay would detect compounds which directly activate glucokinase in the absence of the GLKRP, compounds which prevent F-6-P binding or which act as F-l-P mimetics.
- the spectrophotometric assay would equally well detect compounds which inhibited a protein to protein interaction between GLK and GLKRP.
- assay methods which are able to provide information on the precise mechanism of action of compounds which modulate GLK activity.
- assay methods are needed to identify compounds which stimulate GLK activity by preventing the binding interaction between GLK and GLKRP.
- Such assay methods are provided by the GLK/GLKRP binding assay and the F-6-P/GLKRP binding assay disclosed in the present invention.
- new methods for identifying compounds which modulate GLK In particular, we have developed an assay system which identifies compounds which modulate GLK by preventing the interaction between GLK and GLKRP. It is to be understood that whenever an assay system as described herein is referred to, a method and/or process utilising said assay system is also contemplated.
- the assay system comprises two related assay methods; a GLK/GLKRP binding assay and a F-6-P / GLKRP binding assay.
- the GLK/GLKRP binding assay provides an assay method for measuring the binding interactions between GLK and GLKRP. The method may be used to identify compounds which modulate GLK by modulating the interaction between GLK and GLKRP.
- GLKRP and GLK are incubated with an inhibitory concentration of F-6-P, optionally in the presence of test compound, and the extent of interaction between GLK and GLKRP is measured.
- the F-6-P / GLKRP binding assay provides an assay method for measuring the binding interaction between GLKRP and F-6-P. This method may be used to provide further information on the mechanism of action of the compounds.
- Compounds identified in the GLK/GLKRP binding assay may modulate the interaction of GLK and GLKRP either by displacing F-6-P or by modifying the GLK/GLKRP interaction in some other way.
- protein-protein interactions are generally known to occur by interactions through multiple binding sites. It is thus possible that a compound which modifies the interaction between GLK and GLKRP could act by binding to one or more of several different binding sites.
- the F-6-P / GLKRP binding assay identifies only those compounds which modulate the interaction of GLK and GLKRP by displacing F-6-P from its binding site on GLKRP.
- GLKRP is incubated with test compound and an inhibitory concentration of F-6-P, in the absence of GLK, and the extent of interaction between F-6-P and GLKRP is measured.
- an assay method which method comprises measurement of the binding interaction between GLKRP and either GLK or F-6-P.
- the assay method comprises: (i) contacting
- a particularly preferred embodiment of the assay methods of the invention is a scintillation proximity assay (SPA).
- SPA scintillation proximity assay
- SPA involves the use of fluomicrospheres coated with acceptor molecules such as enzymes or receptors, to which a ligand will bind selectively in a reversible manner (Bosworth and Towers, 1989).
- acceptor molecules such as enzymes or receptors
- the technique requires the use of a ligand labelled with an isotope that emits low energy radiation which is dissipated easily into an aqueous medium.
- bound labelled ligands will be in close proximity to the fluomicrospheres, allowing the emitted energy to activate the fluor and produce light.
- the vast majority of unbound labelled ligands will be too far from the fluomicrospheres to enable the transfer of energy. Bound ligands produce light but free ligands do not, allowing the extent of ligand binding to be measured without the need to separate bound and free ligand.
- a scintillation proximity assay may be used in either or both the GLK/GLKRP binding assay and the F-6-P/GLKRP binding assay.
- a scintillation proximity assay for measuring the interaction between GLK and GLKRP, wherein one of (a), (b) or (c) as defined in Assay Method 1 is radiolabelled and another of (a), (b) or (c) as defined in Assay Method 1 is bound to a fluomicrosphere.
- the radiolabelled ligand is [ 3 H]F-6-P.
- GLK is biotinylated and the fluomicrospheres are coated with streptavidin. Biotinylated GLK binds to the streptavidin coated fluomicrospheres as shown in Figure 3.
- GLK, GLKRP and [ 3 H]F-6-P may be detected by the emission of light from the fluomicrospheres.
- Compounds which modulate the interaction between GLK and GLKRP may be identified by a change in light emission from the fluomicrospheres.
- the radiolabelled ligand is [ 3 H]F-6-P.
- (a) as defined in Assay Method 1 is labelled with a FLAG tag, and the fluomicrospheres are coated with an anti-FLAG antibody.
- (a) as defined in Assay Method 1 is biotinylated, and the fluomicrospheres are coated with streptavidin.
- Binding of F-6-P to GLKRP may be detected by the emission of light from the fluomicrospheres.
- Compounds which displace F-6-P from its binding site on GLKRP may be identified by a change in light emission from the fluomicrospheres.
- Compounds which may be tested in the assays include simple organic molecules, commonly known as "small molecules", for example those having a molecular weight of less than 2000 Daltons.
- the assay may also be used to screen compound libraries such as peptide libraries, including synthetic peptide libraries and peptide phage libraries.
- Other suitable molecules include antibodies, nucleotide sequences and any other molecules which stimulate GLK.
- Modulation of activity comprises either activation or inhibition.
- a compound which modulates GLK is a compound which either stimulates or inhibits GLK.
- modulator of GLK and “GLK modulator” are also used herein to refer to a compound that either stimulates or inhibits GLK.
- the compounds of the invention have utility in the treatment of NTDDMs, in general this would arise by stimulation of GLK.
- An inhibiting concentration of F-6-P is one which reduces the rate of the GLK enzyme reaction. Preferably the rate should be reduced by greater than 85%. This reduction would typically be achieved using a concentration of F-6-P of 25 ⁇ M (when used with rat GLKRP ) and lO ⁇ M (when used with human GLKRP).
- step (i) of Assay Method 1 is carried out in the presence of glucose. Any convenient concentration of glucose may be used for example 1, 2, 5, 10, 50 or 100 mM. In a particularly preferred embodiment the concentration of glucose is 5 mM.

- the assays can be carried out in 96-well microplates allowing large numbers of compounds to be tested simultaneously.
- GLK and GLKRP used in the assays of the invention are human proteins.
- homologue we mean a protein with a similar amino acid sequence to a GLK protein sequence or a GLKRP protein sequence as set out in Tanizawa et al 1991 and Bonthron, D.T. et al 1994 respectively.
- the homologue may be a protein from the same species, i.e. a homologous protein family member.
- the homologue may be a similar protein from a different species such as rat or mouse, useful in providing animal models of NTDDMs.
- Convenient homologues include those which share a sequence similarity of 70% or greater with a GLK or GLKRP sequence set out in Tanizawa et al 1991 and Bonthron, D.T. et al 1994 respectively.

- Fragments as used herein include peptides containing six or more consecutive amino acids of the GLK and GLKRP sequences set out in (Tanizawa et al 1991 and Bonthron, D.T. et al 1994) respectively.
- the fragments possess the same or essentially the same biological activity as the full length molecules from which they are derived.
- the fragments may represent for example more than 1% or more than 5% or more than 10% or more than 50% or more than 90% of the full length molecules from which they are derived.

- the size of the dose of a GLK modulator, for therapeutic or prophylactic purposes will naturally vary according to the nature and severity of the NIDDM, the age and sex of the patient and the route of administration, according to well-known principles of medicine.
- a novel GLK modulator for therapeutic or prophylactic purposes it will generally be administered so that a daily dose in the range for example 0.5mg to 75mg per kg body weight is received, given if required in individual doses. In general lower doses will be administered when a parenteral route is employed.

- E coli transformations were generally carried out by electroporation. 400 ml cultures of strains DH5 ⁇ or BL21(DE3) were grown in L-broth to an OD 600 of 0.5 and harvested by centrifugation at 2,000g. The cells were washed twice in ice-cold deionised water, resuspended in 1ml 10% glycerol and stored in aliquots at -70°C. Ligation mixes were desalted using Millipore V seriesTM membranes (0.0025mm) pore size).
